The shots from the top, looking down, either made me want to cling to something very tightly - or else to swan dive toward the earth. Is that weird? Like Gonzo would say, I wonder how far you could plummet before you blacked out? And on a related note{ Does anyone besides me, if standing near a railroad crossing with a train whipping past, ever have a very tiny urge to lean forward?
